share consolidationfinancial
"announced that it intends to effect a share consolidation of its ordinary shares"
Share consolidation is a process where a company reduces the total number of its shares by combining multiple existing shares into a smaller number of higher-value shares. This can make each share more expensive and potentially improve the company’s image. For investors, it often means their ownership remains the same, but the value of each share increases, which can influence how the stock is perceived and traded.
par valuefinancial
"Class A ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.05 each"
Par value is the fixed amount printed on a bond or stock that represents its original value when issued. It’s like the face value of a coin or bill—what the issuer promises to pay back or the starting price of a stock—though it often doesn’t change with market prices. It matters because it helps determine certain financial details, like how much the company will pay back at maturity.
authorised share capitalfinancial
"At the Effective Time, the authorised share capital of the Company will be reduced"
The maximum number of shares a company is legally allowed to create under its founding documents. Think of it like the size of an empty container: it sets the upper limit on how many ownership pieces the company can hand out, which matters to investors because it controls how easily a company can raise cash, dilute existing owners, or change voting power without a formal legal change.
warrantsfinancial
"Outstanding warrants and other outstanding equity rights will be proportionately adjusted"
Warrants are special documents that give you the right to buy a company's stock at a set price before a certain date. They are often used as a way for companies to attract investors or raise money, and their value can increase if the company's stock price goes up.
"The CUSIP number for the Company’s Class A ordinary shares following the Share Consolidation"
A CUSIP number is a nine-character code that uniquely identifies a specific U.S. or Canadian stock, bond, or other security, similar to a barcode or a social-security number for a financial instrument. It matters to investors because it removes confusion between similar securities, ensures trades and settlements are applied to the correct issue, and helps locate official documents and transaction records quickly.
transfer agentfinancial
"Shareholders of record may direct questions ... to the Company’s transfer agent"
A transfer agent is a financial service that keeps the official record of who owns a company's shares, handles the buying and selling of those shares on paper or electronically, and issues or cancels stock certificates. Think of it as the company’s records keeper and mailroom combined—investors rely on it to make sure dividends, shareholder mailings, ownership changes, and proxy voting are processed accurately and securely, which protects ownership rights and helps prevent errors or fraud.
Class A Ordinary Shares Will Begin Trading on a Post-Consolidation Adjusted Basis on April 7, 2026
BEIJING, April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cheer Holding, Inc. (NASDAQ: CHR) (“Cheer Holding,” “we” or the “Company”), a leading provider of next-generation mobile internet infrastructure and platform services, today announced that it intends to effect a share consolidation of its ordinary shares at a ratio of 1 post-split Class A ordinary share for every 3 pre-split ordinary shares (the “Share Consolidation”) so that every three (3) shares issued and outstanding will be combined into one (1) share.

As a result of the Share Consolidation, the number of issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares of the Company will be reduced from 4,686,248 pre-consolidation Class A ordinary shares to approximately 1,562,083 post-consolidation Class A ordinary shares, subject to adjustments for rounding.

Shareholders holding their shares in book-entry form or in “street name” (through a broker, bank or other holder of record) will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect the Share Consolidation. Shareholders of record may direct questions concerning the Share Consolidation to the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.
